<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ksparrow, post: 417266, member: 7638&quot;]I have not bought from Coin Depot, but early in my collecting (about 2 years ago, just a beginner) I bought a number of &#039;pq&#039; coins from another seller with lots of photos and multipage spreads in Coin World. When I sent them in for grading, I found out that that the &#039;BU&#039; coins were dipped AU&#039;s. So, the &#039;bargain priced&#039; Bu coins I paid AU money for were...AU!&nbsp; Not willing to give up completely, I purchased several thousand dollars worth of coins from the SAME SELLER (may I have a last cigarette before the firing squad?) but this time I knew how to spot cleaned and &#039;slider&#039; coins, and 3/4 of the batch of &#039;BU&#039; were just that. They had the nerve to try to pass off an xf $3 Indian as uncirculated. I sent the whole bunch back for a full refund and henceforth resolved to avoid such sellers completely.</p><p>What I learned from this is that a knowledgeable seller is NOT going to sell a coin in an ad for less than its actual value. I would presume, without actual proof, that the &#039;bargains&#039; up for sale are faux bargains, and you will get just what you pay for (and possibly less).[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
